Where is the fuel filler cap switch for the Buick Excelle?
2 Answers
The fuel filler switch of the Excelle is located at the bottom left side of the driver's seat. Pull it upward and release to open the fuel filler cap. Below are precautions when refueling: 1. Use automotive gasoline: Inappropriate fuel entering the fuel system may damage the fuel system and engine. 2. Gasoline: Do not use gasoline containing methanol or alcohol. 3. Paint surface: Avoid spilling fuel on the paint surface to prevent damage. 4. Opening the fuel door: If the fuel door is frozen and cannot be opened, gently push or tap the fuel door to remove ice and open it. 5. Spraying: Prevent excessive fuel pressure from causing spraying. Below is extended information on how to deal with fuel overflow: 1. Gasoline: Use a broom to scatter it, isolate the area, and prevent people and vehicles from approaching, then wait for it to evaporate. 2. Diesel: Use fire sand to pour over it and sweep back and forth. After absorbing the oil, place the oil-sand mixture on a cement ground exposed to direct sunlight for drying.
I remember driving the Buick Excelle for several years. The fuel filler door release is located near the driver's seat, with a small button on the floorboard next to the left foot, similar in appearance to the door unlock button. A gentle press pops open the fuel filler door. The positioning is thoughtfully designed—it's unlikely to be pressed accidentally, nor is it hidden out of sight like in some other cars. I always remind my friends to familiarize themselves with its location when driving the car for the first time, to avoid any hassle during refueling. Also, don’t overlook this switch during regular maintenance; clean it promptly if it gets dirty or stuck. Over a decade of driving, these small details have truly made journeys more hassle-free.
